Verizon Wireless's 4G LTE Network to Reach 100 Markets

According
to Cnet, Verizon Wireless will cover over 100 markets with 4G LTE by
July 21 as executives touted their newly launched network at the
Consumer Electronics Show. This will mark a huge milestone for the
company that will have managed to hit 100 markets
in eight months, compared to the 25 months it took for them to hit that
mark with their 3G network. With speeds on average between 5-12Mbps
down and 2-5Mbps up, consumer demand continues to grow for the faster
wireless speeds. According to Daniel Hays, a director at management
consulting firm PRTM, said "Their strategy is clearly to win the race to
the top," and "They are taking full advantage of the lead they have
over the other national operators in rolling out a true 4G network to as
many subscribers as possible."
